SUCCESS FOR HARRY AND CAMAC

Last week I received an email about the astonishing accomplishment two of our Year Two students had achieved. We love to share these amazing stories.

We wanted to take a moment to share some very exciting news about our Harry, and his achievements at the Southern All Breeds Handlers Camp in Harden over the weekend.

At the handlers camp, Harry won Champion Pee Wee Judge and then went on to win joint Grand Champion Judge with the Novice Division Champion. There were approx. 150 competitors ranging in age from 5 to 60 years old at this years show. He also won Champion Pee Wee Parader and was part of the team that placed 1st in the fitting competition, where teams of 5 prepared a heifer for the show ring.

For an 8 year old, these results are truly remarkable. During my 27 years of showing cattle, I have never seen a Pee Wee win the title of Grand Champion Judge. We are so proud of Harry.

A special mention goes to Camac Wilson, who also attended the Handlers Camp. Camac won 1st place in his Pee Wee Paraders heat and was 3rd in the Pee Wee Herdsman competition. 

We are grateful to St Mary's for the encouragement and support that helps give children like Harry & Camac, the confidence to try new opportunities and achieve their best.

RDA - Mounted Games

Year Three students, Khloe and Adrian recently competed at the 2025 RDA (NSW) State Mounted Games Championships. Both students have been attending the Centre this year and have fallen in love with their horses and horse riding. Khloe was awarded Reserve Champion Led Jnr at the event. CONGRATULATIONS to both of them.
